> With Artificial Intelligence becoming ever more capable,

It’s still woefully lacking; we have about the technology/knowledge to make an epileptic chicken so far as real AI is concerned.

What do you call it when a blonde dyes her hair brown?

I disagree.

Image recognition algorithms are extremely good now, to the point where they rival humans. They will eventually surpass humans. Also, did you catch the Jeopardy games where a computer (Watson) handily beat past Jeopardy champions?

One of the major remaining hurdles for AI is the ability to be able to intelligently participate in a conversation. Once that is breached, a lot of people whose job is producing hot air can be replaced.

The other thing about AI is the ability to rate, publish and share outcomes in a globally distributed fashion. This would potentially allow it to “learn” much faster than any single human could.
